The way you twist my words
All crooked in your ear
Shaving the bone of fear
The Way you twist my touch
When naked in the dark
Remember every mark
Well with all that second guessing you should know
I thought I'd learned my lesson years ago
With all that second guessing, revision and dissection
I thought I'd learned my lesson years ago
We're alone in the car again
Hug every bounding curve
Pillow talk on the phone again
Trust every ing
Told you she made me feel
You laid me down with her
Like double sided steel you cut me down with words

I feel the pull of chords unraveling
A droplet forms, defies gravity
A particle system dispersing
Methodical, the mind balancing
Devise a wave to touch these fathom lows
Weave flecks of grace into carefully written prose
Sometimes these squalls move me violently
Barely hold on, uprooted at the feet
I swing these songs and they swing from me
Our secret lives are all tangled in these strings
Time is a poison we've survived
Music forms when we're alive
Pain and heartbreak synthesized in every word we breath
It's a miracle

The flashing tongue of winter's kiss has nested in my room
Corrosive winds, anemic light, I'd settled for this truth
But you warm my hands
With you smiling I'm in summer sand
You saturate the cathode rays with an incandescent bloom
This frozen spell that inanimates is lost in new motion
The sound of boughs thawing on the eaves
We rations smiles
Compassion thinned
When you reached out
It set me in motion

I won't beg anymore
Eye to eye or the door
It's safe to say I was yours
It's safe to say I need more
I just was not raised that way
I want only you
With them, I did not feel this way
I want only you
I know I made mistakes and strayed
I want only you
With them I went against myself
I want only you
I fought to ignore the fire inside- living in silence
I love's simple design isn't defiant but it cages you
You drove me crazy girl!
Peeled back my self-esteem
Exposed my shame
You're viral to my thoughts
A poison to my heart
Took everything I had to manage the pain
